DETX, molecular formula: c17H16OS, molecular weight: 268.37, CAS registry number: [82799-44-8]As pale yellow crystalline powder, melting point: the temperature is 70-71 ℃, and the UV curing coating is mainly applied to UV curing coatings and printing ink.
Generally, thioxanthones and derivatives thereof are prepared by the substitution and condensation of thiosalicylic acid or dithiosalicylic acid with unsubstituted or substituted aromatic compounds in a sulfuric acid medium (see J.org.chem.1959,24, 1914-. The production process of 2, 4-diethylthioxanthone basically follows the above-mentioned technological route, and still uses concentrated sulfuric acid as solvent and catalyst (J.chem.Soc.1911,99,645, JPS 57163377 and CN 102250060 are all adopted in said process), and uses thiosalicylic acid or dithiosalicylic acid and 1, 3-diethylbenzene to make preparation.
